Masks
« on: 20 January 2022, 19:51:55 »

A few months back, schools in England received an email asking if they would like some masks, from the government, free. Yes please they said. Today, the government announced that children were no longer required to wear masks in school. Also today, boxes with 2000 face masks started arriving at schools across the country. One headteacher, who knows my wife well, texted her to say that hers had arrived. The school only has 130 kids.

Primary school kids don't wear masks, which makes it even more silly. They're just getting shut to save space because tipping them would look really bad  ;D

The rules have changed so many times that we really have no clue what is going on, we just try to be careful  but still go out just use a bit of commonsense.

It actually killed less than 20,000 people in the UK, so please explain what wearing a mask actually achieves beyond using fear to control people...

BUT...
Hospitals full to overflowing with people NEEDING treatment for Covid 19 meant that 175,000 excess deaths where recorded.

Wearing masks reduced transmission of Covid 19 , freeing up beds for other illnesses

Try and engage your brain occasionally  ::)

That number is actually 127,704 against the five year average. And the hospitals are always overwhelmed by something*  :-X

Ah but it was released last year but hasn’t got numbers yet! It will probably be given a catchy name like OhmeBoris.

Is the answer to your question

That number is actually 127,704 against the five year average. And the hospitals are always overwhelmed by something*  :-X
You are just like the MSM you love to slag off so much  ::)
there IS a bigger picture ,not just a clickbait headline

the 175,000 is a good indication of deaths due to the Covid 19 pandemic
not a yearly number

of the 330 deaths recorded today, I imagine not many died purely of Covid ,if any .
with treatment you may well recover or die weeks or months after a positive Covid test .
but there is several thousand patients in hospital receiving treatment for Covid 19
that means several thousand hospital beds taken up that could be used to treat cancer etc .


so to summarise ....
175,000 people could still be alive if Covid 19 hadn't happened

the true figures may never be known

I think covid is going to be responsible for the death of my brother but, of course, I can't say that for certain. I think, if he'd have been able to attend the doctor's surgery, and had a referral for tests, his cancer may have been treatable. But he had to make do with haemorrhoid cream for four months, because covid fûcked the system up.
So it didn't cause the cancer, it just stopped him getting treatment for it.

He won't be on the death's within 28 days when he goes, but it may have caused his death. So no figures for people like him.
